Chapter 658 Although the Red Demon Lord has been sealed
Jiang Luo smiled coldly, his eyes like knives: "Red Demon Lord, if you can honestly tell me who is behind you, I can consider not killing you, but just sealing you."
The Red Demon Lord laughed loudly, with a hint of madness in his tone: "What a joke! Do you think you can kill me? Don't forget, I am connected to the Yin energy of this Cave of Ten Thousand Demons. As long as the Yin energy is not destroyed, I can be reborn continuously!"
Jiang Luo's eyes fixed, and he said in a deep voice: "Wu Jiu, Xiao Shuai, activate the formation!"
Fan Wujiu and Xiao Shuai nodded at the same time, quickly forming seals with their hands, and whispered, "Mountain-Dividing-Water Formation!"
As their voices fell, a golden light rose from the ground and quickly spread to the entire Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave. The Red-robed Demon Lord felt the Yin Qi in his body being quickly drawn out, his face suddenly changed, and he roared: "How dare you cut off my connection with the Yin Qi!"
Jiang Luo smiled coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Red Demon Lord, do you think we are unprepared? Today is the end of you!"
The Red Demon Lord was forced into a desperate situation, and a hint of madness flashed in his eyes. He suddenly waved his bone staff and shouted in a low voice: "Manjusaka, all flowers return to their origin!"
As his voice fell, countless black Manjusaka petals rose from the ground, flying in the air like sharp blades, heading straight for Jiang Luo and his group. Wherever the petals passed, the air seemed to be torn apart, making a sharp whistling sound.
Jiang Luo's eyes focused and he reacted quickly. A golden light burst out from his hand, turning into a huge shield to block everyone. The petals of Lycoris radiata hit the shield, making a harsh roar. Spider-web-like cracks appeared on the surface of the shield. The sound made people's teeth ache.
Fan Wujiu tightly grasped the Aoxue Linghan Sword, and his body moved like lightning, instantly approaching the Red-robed Demon Lord, with the tip of the sword igniting a sharp cold light. He shouted in a low voice: "Aoxue Linghan·Ice Sealed Thousand Miles!" The tip of the sword passed, and a stream of icy sword energy rushed directly towards the Red-robed Demon Lord. Wherever it passed, the air seemed to be frozen.
The Red-robed Demon Lord sneered, waved his bone staff, and the black Yin Qi surged like a tide, trying to resist Fan Wujiu's sword energy. However, the icy sword energy instantly penetrated the Yin Qi and went straight to the Red-robed Demon Lord's chest. The Red-robed Demon Lord's face changed, and he quickly retreated, but the sword energy still left a deep scar on his shoulder.
At the same time, Yuan Haokun's Qilin arm burst into a yellowish-brown light, and he punched the ground, which instantly cracked, with a huge crack directly under the feet of the Red-robed Demon Lord. The Red-robed Demon Lord stood unsteadily, his body swayed slightly, but he quickly stabilized his body.
Lin Shishuang stood on a high place, and fired several arrows from his crossbow. The arrows shot out like lightning, and each arrow accurately aimed at the vital points of the Red-robed Demon Lord. The Red-robed Demon Lord waved his bone staff, and the black Yin Qi turned into a barrier, trying to block the arrows. However, the arrows were attached with the power of heaven, and instantly penetrated the Yin Qi barrier, forcing the Red-robed Demon Lord to retreat again and again.
At this time, Jiang Luo issued an order: "It's almost time, Xiao Shuai!"
Xiao Shuai stood in the back, quickly forming seals with his hands, and whispered: "The power of heaven, the seal array!" A golden array rose from the ground, quickly enveloping the Red Demon Lord. The Red Demon Lord felt the power in his body being quickly drained away, his face suddenly changed, and he roared: "How dare you seal me!"
Jiang Luo smiled coldly, his eyes full of determination: "Red Demon Lord, you are extremely evil, and I don't know how many innocent souls you have devoured. Today, use your life to comfort the dead souls!" He held the Ghost Apocalypse Notes in both hands and whispered: "Heaven has carried out the will of the Ghost Emperor, and the Ghost Emperor has borrowed your soul!"
As he finished speaking, countless golden ghosts emerged from the pages of the book. They were wrapped in the power of heaven and exuded a sacred and majestic aura. The ghost soldiers surged out like a tide and instantly submerged the red-robed demon lord.
The Red Demon Lord was surrounded by the golden Yin soldiers. He felt the power in his body being purified rapidly and let out a shrill scream. He swung his bone staff violently, and the black Lycoris radiata petals flew again, trying to break through the encirclement of the golden Yin soldiers. However, the golden runes flew in the air, purifying the petals of Lycoris radiata one by one, turning them into black smoke and dissipating.
Jiang Luo formed seals with his hands and whispered, "The power of heaven, seal!" A more dazzling golden light burst out from his hands and headed straight for the Red-clothed Demon Lord. The Red-clothed Demon Lord was enveloped by the golden light, and his body gradually turned into black smoke and dissipated into the air.
After all this was done, Jiang Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief. He used the spirit detector to detect the breath of the Red Demon Lord, and sure enough, he did not detect any signs of life.
Deep in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, the gloomy wind gradually subsided, and the black Lycoris radiata petals in the sky gradually dissipated under the golden runes, turning into tiny specks of black smoke and eventually disappearing into the air. The entire Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave seemed to be enveloped by a layer of golden light, and the originally suppressed yin energy was completely purified, restoring the long-lost tranquility.
Jiang Luo stood in the core area of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, still holding the Ghost Revelation Notebook in his hands. The golden runes on the pages slowly converged, and the 100,000 ghost soldiers also retreated like a tide and disappeared into the air. He took a deep breath, feeling the huge consumption of spiritual power in his body, and his face turned slightly pale.
Fan Wujiu walked up to him, holding the Aoxue Linghan Sword tightly, and said with a hint of concern: "Xiaoluo, are you okay?"
Jiang Luo nodded slightly, his voice was light but firm: "It's okay, it's just that the spiritual power is over-consumed, and it will recover after a short rest."
Xiao Shuai also came over: "The sealing formation has been completely activated, and the Red Demon Lord's aura has completely disappeared. He will not be able to cause trouble in the short term."
The khaki light on Yuan Haokun's Qilin arm gradually dissipated. He clenched his fist and stood behind Jiang Luo. "The Yin energy in this cave of ten thousand ghosts is so heavy. Will other evil spirits breed in the future? Why don't we seal this place off completely! So that no one can use this place to cause trouble again."
Lin Shishuang flew down from a height, still holding the divine crossbow tightly in his hand, and looked around vigilantly: "Although the Red Demon Lord has been sealed, we really can't let our guard down. The forces behind him have not yet appeared, so we must always remain vigilant. By sealing this ghost cave, we can also avoid other troubles."
Jiang Luo nodded, his eyes solemn: "You are right, it is time to seal it. When we go out, we will add a few more seals on this door. The seal recognizes its master, and each of us will add one. Unless it is a powerful being from outer space, it will be impossible for anyone to break it."
Fan Wujiu nodded and said, "Good idea, then let's each seal one seal in a while!"
Xiao Shuai pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "Next we need to reorganize the underworld, strengthen its defenses, and investigate the forces behind the Red Demon Lord. Only by completely eliminating the hidden dangers can we ensure the peace of the underworld."
Everyone left the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, and before leaving, each person added a soul imprint on the door. In this way, the cave became a secret room that would never be opened. Even if the Red Demon Lord was reborn, he would not be able to break through the restrictions of so many people, let alone break in from the outside.
After sealing the Red Demon Lord, Jiang Luo led everyone back to the Palace of Yama to ask Yama for more information about the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
In the Hades Palace, the ten Yamas gathered together, and the atmosphere was solemn. The Yama King was sitting in the main seat. When he saw Jiang Luo and his party coming in, he immediately stood up to greet them, smiling: "Master Jiang Luo, you are finally here! How is the matter of the Red Demon Lord handled?"
Jiang Luo nodded slightly, his tone calm: "The Red Demon Lord has been sealed by us, and the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave has also been completely sealed. He will not be able to cause trouble in the short term."
Upon hearing this, the King of Hell heaved a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly: "Great! Thanks to the efforts of Lord Jiang Luo and everyone else, otherwise the underworld would never have peace."
King Pingdeng stood aside and glanced at King Yan coldly, with a hint of disdain in his tone: "Things haven't ended yet, and you are relieved first? Although the Red Demon Lord has been sealed, the forces behind him have not been found out yet, and the hidden dangers of the underworld still exist."
King Yan was reprimanded by King Pingdeng and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He smiled awkwardly and said, "King Pingdeng is right. We really can't take it lightly."
Jiang Luo glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "King Pingdeng is right. Speaking of which, I do have some questions I want to ask King Yan. Who sealed this Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave in the beginning? Do you remember?"
The Yama Kings looked at each other, seemingly none of them remembered this incident.
Jiang Luo added: "Moreover, the Red-robed Demon Lord is just a pawn of the people behind the scenes, and the real threat has not yet surfaced. We came here this time to learn from the Yama Kings about other information about the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, especially how it is related to the forces behind the Red-robed Demon Lord."
Upon hearing this, the King of Hell immediately said in a serious tone: "Master Jiang Luo, please speak. We will tell you everything we know."
Jiang Luo nodded and continued to ask: "Do you know the origin of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave? Why did it become a gathering place for yin energy and even nourish evil cultivators like the Red-robed Demon Lord?"
The King of Hell frowned, thought for a moment and said, "We actually know very little about the origin of the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts. According to ancient records, the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts existed thousands of years ago and seems to be related to the establishment of the underworld. It is rumored that it was once a gathering place for ancient evil cultivators, and was later sealed by the Heavenly Dao and became a part of the underworld."
King Pingdeng took over the conversation, his tone grim: "The reason why the Yin Qi of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave is so dense is because it is connected to the Yin Vein core of the underworld. As long as the Yin Vein exists, the Yin Qi of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave will not be cut off. This is also the reason why the Red Demon Lord can be reborn continuously."
Jiang Luo's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "In other words, the Yin Qi of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave is connected to the Yin Veins of the Underworld? If so, if we seal the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, will it affect the Yin Veins of the Underworld?"
King Pingdeng shook his head and said firmly, "No. We have already set up restrictions in the core of the Yin Meridian to ensure that the Yin energy of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave will not affect the normal operation of the underworld. If you seal the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave, you can cut off the connection between the Red Demon Lord and the Yin Meridian, and completely cut off his path to rebirth."
Jiang Luo nodded and continued to ask: "Besides that, have you ever heard about the person behind the Red Demon Lord? Why can he control the Red Demon Lord and even raise Qiongqi in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave?"
The King of Hell and several Yamas exchanged a glance and shook their heads. The King of Hell smiled bitterly and said, "Master Jiang Luo, we really know nothing about the person behind the Red Demon Lord. His origins are extremely mysterious, and even we, the King of Hell, have not noticed his existence."
King Pingdeng added coldly: "This person can control the Red Demon Lord and even raise Qiongqi under the nose of the underworld. Obviously, he is very powerful. We need to find out his identity as soon as possible, otherwise the underworld will never have peace."
Jiang Luo pondered for a moment, then said: "In this case, we can only look for clues from the Red Demon Lord. Although he is sealed, his residual soul may still retain some memories. We can try to use soul-searching techniques to explore the forces behind him."
